I assume the __init__ of AdItem that sets the default values that you
mentioned

You overwrite all the defaults with the real values... .good.

You add the new object to the folder. The folder calls
ad.manage_afterAdd (or whatever its called), which in the case of
CatalogAware calls index_object.

Everything looks right to me. The catalog should contain the real
values.
